Where Kindness Becomes a Movement
Magnify Kindness exists to spark simple acts of compassion that inspire others to do the same – creating a ripple effect of kindness that grows, multiplies and transforms communities.
About 25 years ago, my family walked into a church service and we were each handed a $20 bill – bet that’s never happened to you. The pastor preached a simple message: life can be hard sometimes, but if you do as we’re commanded and take the focus off yourself and love your neighbor, your worries dissipate and you feel better yourself. The $20 was a challenge to go out and share kindness without hesitation. In the following weeks, the stories were overwhelming. Sometimes a single act of somebody letting another know that they are seen. Sometimes with amazing creativity, $20 was turned into an initiative that impacted dozens of people.
Who Do We Serve? Everyone.
We all need kindness, no matter our circumstances — so there is no qualification criteria. We look a little harder for those who are lonely, isolated or facing a particular challenge, but mostly we encourage people to act. Don’t overthink it. If you see an opportunity, take it.

Helping Students Grow Through Kindness
Kindness is a skill that can be nurtured. Our only ask of school leadership is enthusiastic support — and an assembly at the end where everyone shares what they did.
- Students bring their own creativity to each act
- Work individually, in small groups, or as a whole class
- We provide a fund for each class, generally $20 per student
- Parents are very welcome at the closing assembly

Small Things, Done With Great Love
“We cannot all do great things. But we can do small things with great love.” — Mother Teresa
A note on focus: we serve people, not animals — there are wonderful organizations for that. And we do not engage in politics or advocacy. Our impact is made directly, person to person.
